AI-Generated Outlines Are Now Available From the Google Scholar PDF Reader Browser Extension
From the Google Scholar Blog:
Do you have an ever-growing pile of papers that you absolutely must read? Extended outlines to the rescue! Today, we are adding AI outlines to Scholar PDF Reader to help you read papers both quickly and in depth.
An AI outline is an extended table of contents for the paper. It includes a few bullets for each key section. Skim the outline for a quick overview. Click on a bullet to deep read where it gets interesting – be it methods, results, discussion, or specific details.
AI outlines are, as yet, available for selected papers in English. They are enabled when you click a PDF link in Google Scholar. For other PDFs, the regular section outline is displayed and you can click on the AI Outline icon to request one.
